The correct answer is B, which is indeed a run-on sentence. There are two independent sentences. A period should be placed after the word continues, with a new sentence starting with <em>the weather</em>. The semi-colon in example D is correct, making this a solid (not a run-on) sentence.

The correct answer is B. The game will be called if the storm continues, the weather is dangerous.


A run-on sentence means that two sentences are connected in a grammatically wrong way, usually by writing a comma between them. This is sometimes wrong, as they need to be connected using a conjunction as well. So, in order to fix sentence B, you'd need to write the conjunction <em>and if </em>before <em>the weather is dangerous.</em>

Like burnt out touches by a sick man's bed
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

Simile

Explanation:

"Like burnt-out candles alongside a sick man's bed" compares something to something else. Whatever it is, it is compared to torches that have burned out. "Like" was used to support the comparison. Its goal is to compare one or more qualities of a burnt-out flame to anything else. Using supporting words is termed simile. They are a fairly frequent figure of speech, like metaphors, except that metaphors do not include support words.

kherson [118]

Answer:

The sentence that avoids clichés, trite phrases, and buzzwords is Our committee will analyze the proposals on Monday.

Explanation:

Clichés, trite phrases, and buzzwords are words or expressions that have been used too many times after they became widely popular, and as a result, they stopped working or giving the impact they used to have, the sentence "Our committee will analyze the proposals on Monday." is simple and direct and does not use any words inside that context.
